I use the science plan as recommended by my vet for my 3 small yorkies. To order it from this site was efficient and the delivery service was great.
Great value and size of chunk ideal

Product Reviewed: 3kg
I have a small dog who is now 13 years old. She has a small appetite and the small size of the chunks of the Hills Canine Senior 7+ Mini is perfect for her. She also has had bad teeth in the past and has had some removed, so size of chunk is really important to encourage her to eat properly.

It Happened One Night (in the Lab)
Physicist Clifford Johnson and chemist Anna Krylov of USC Dornsife launch USC's first filmmaking competition focusing on science themes.
Envision a romantic comedy with a science-based plot.
The leading roles are biologists, let's say, working in the same lab, using Schizoaccharomyces pombe to find a cure for cancer. Love ensues, followed by some terrible mishap in the lab, a break up, make up and the obligatory walk down the aisle.
Viewers could laugh, cry and learn something about genome instability — when cells start to make mistakes in dividing and replicating, leading to cancer — along the way.
This is one of endless possibilities for a plot in USC's first science-themed filmmaking competition. USC Dornsife's Clifford Johnson and Anna Krylov organized the competition with funds from the Anton Burg Foundation.
Oct. 8 is the deadline for competition registration and the final submission deadline is Jan. 11. First prize winner receives $2,500, 2nd prize $1,500, 3rd prizes $500. Students from throughout USC are encouraged to compete. Each team will present a short film or documentary in any genre explaining and illustrating a scientific concept, principle or issue for a wide, non-expert audience.
A jury of USC faculty and outside experts will determine the winners. At the conclusion, there will be a film showcase and awards ceremony.
Teams can be comprised of students in different USC schools and departments, giving everyone an opportunity to learn from each other. Each team must include at least one student from a USC Dornsife science department, the Viterbi School of Engineering or the Keck School of Medicine, and at least one from the USC School of Cinematic Arts or the Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism. The competition is not an official class or program of any school.
"The biggest obstacle may be students not reaching out to students in other schools," said Johnson, professor of physics and astronomy. "So I'd love to hear from faculty in all parts of USC who can help act as 'matchmakers,' helping me put students in touch with each other."
The objective is to better communicate science to the general public. In essence, the festival helps future filmmakers, scientists, writers, journalists — or students pursuing any field — learn how to communicate scientific ideas.
"The key to getting better communication about science in the media, in entertainment and in all aspects of our daily lives is through increased contact between those with the knowledge and those with the responsibility to communicate," Johnson said. "Right now, most journalists and filmmakers, either in documentary or in entertainment, aren't in the practice of working with scientists even when they're doing something involving science.
"Many of them have never even met a scientist," Johnson said. "And the same is true on the other side. Most scientists or engineers have no appreciation for what it takes to make a film and communicate ideas either explicitly, say in documentary form, or implicitly, say through drama, and have probably never met a filmmaker or journalist."
Johnson said he hears scientists complain that films or news stories never get the science right.
"We can take major steps to change this situation by training a new generation of scientists, engineers and communicators who will understand and appreciate each other's fields more, through collaboration," Johnson said. "Better films will be made for sure, and for the students, the sort of contacts that get made at this stage in their careers will likely stay with them into the future."
Krylov, professor of chemistry, said communicating science to the general public is crucial for science to maintain a competitive edge.
"We need people to know why it's important to invest in fundamental research — science funding is really hurting now — and we want younger generations to be excited about doing science," she said.
Krylov said science is often communicated at "unacceptably trivialized levels" because journalists and filmmakers often lack scientific background.
"On the other hand, scientists often fail to communicate, in an exciting way, their research to laymen because they are not trained in showmanship skills," Krylov said. "Clifford and I think that bringing aspiring scientists and journalists together will bridge this gap and make a real difference in science communication."
This project capitalizes on the lessons Johnson and Krylov learned while working on two iOpenShell films, Shine a Light and Laser, which have been well received by the community with more than 40,000 views on YouTube and enthusiastic feedback from educators and the general public. The videos have been translated into four languages.
The fun part is that Johnson and Krylov have no idea what kinds of films will be made, or what concepts will be covered. They said some faculty may have their students enter the contest for a course project.
"Science and its impact on our lives is such a huge subject that can be done in so many ways, so I've no idea what to expect," said Johnson, who co-wrote a play about scientists, has co-produced educational videos and is creating a physics-related graphic novel. Johnson also has an "everyman" science blog, Asymptotia.
"The more students who participate, the more variety we'll see. I hope we'll see a variety of narrative choices too, from standard documentary right through to drama. I can even imagine a romantic comedy treatment. As long as science shines through, everyone wins."

Air Date: Week of January 19, 1996
Living on Earth listeners speak out on what they would like to ask the 1996 presidential candidates.
CURWOOD: And now, we'd like to ask you, our listeners, to share with us your environmental success stories. It can be about something that was done in your community or in your household or on the job. Call us at 1-800-218-9988, and be sure to give us a daytime number because we may want to put your success story on the air. We'll give that number again and our e-mail address in just a few moments, but first we want to share with you some responses to last week's query. We asked you if you had the chance, what one question about the environment would you pose to the candidates for President of the United States? Here's what some of you said.
GREENFIELD: My name is Lisa Greenfield. I live in Corvallis, Oregon. My environmental one question for the presidential candidates would be asking them what they would do to help -- to fight against overpopulation. Because I think that's what almost all of our problems in general come down to, is too many people and a finite number of resources.
CURWOOD: Another Oregon listener, Bill Warner of Elkton, had this one question on his mind.
WARNER: Given the trend toward privatization and emphasis upon free market, why can we not set prices for grazing lands by competitive bid? Thank you very much.
CURWOOD: Tom Sharp from Edmond, Oklahoma, wants the candidates to answer this question: Won't turning environmental responsibility over to the states spur a race to deregulate in order to attract jobs and industry? And a listener from Ohio wants to know from the candidates how they would bridge what he calls the conflict between rampant consumerism and the necessity to preserve natural resources. In a similar vein came this query from Jennifer Fox, who listens to us on New Hampshire Public Radio. She asked when we will hear about sustainability.
FOX: Candidates are always talking about growth and how we need to increase our growth markets, and none of them ever seem to address the issue of sustainability and how, in a market where we have finite natural resources, what economics fit into that picture.
CURWOOD: We can't guarantee the candidates will answer your question, but as we continue to cover the race for the White House, we'll try to keep these and other questions you might have in mind.

Was it a bombing? A riot? An act of vandalism? Nope. It was poetry. […]
It is a time of fear in the face of freedom, a time of an emptying country and swelling cities, a time for the widening of previous roads and the opening of new paths, yet a time when these paths are mined by knowing algorithms of the all-seeing eye. It is the time of the warrior's peace and the miser's charity, when the planting of a seed is an act of conscientious objection. These are the times when maps fade, old landmarks crumble and direction is lost.

« Field Music, Junior Boys, & Thiervery Corporation tickets | Dirty Projectors playing 2 NYC shows (Bowery & MHOW) »
Posted in metal | music | tour dates on August 18, 2009
by Black Bubblegum
Behold the Shrinebulder (album art)!
It kinda goes without saying that anticipation is on high for the forthcoming self-titled Shrinebuilder LP (due on Neurot in late Oct/early Nov). Add in the fact this mega-terrific supergroup, made up of Al Cisneros of Om, Scott Kelly of Neurosis, Wino of St Vitus/The Obsessed, and Dale Crover of Melvins, have hinted at multiple live dates. Chicago was the first, and now we can reveal details on the first east coast date!
BrooklynVegan is proud to announce that we will team up with the shadowy folks behind The Blackened Music Series (who brought you Repulsion / Brutal Truth / Pig Destroyer) to present the NYC debut of the mighty Shrinebuilder on Nov 15th at Le Poisson Rouge! Tickets are on sale. Details regarding supporting acts are to come, but you can bet that it's gonna be huge.
Wino is hitting the road with Clutch, including a pair of dates at Irving Plaza (10/9 tix, 10/10 tix). Oh, did I mention that he and f'n Saint Vitus are playing Europa?!?!? Tickets for St Vitus are here.
Melvins are playing with Weedeater and Evil Army, supporting Down at Nokia on 9/11. Tickets are still available.
Om have a pair of shows in NYC, Bowery Ballroom on 10/13 (tix here) and Europa on 10/11 (tix here). Om's new record, God Is Good, is due on 9/8 via Drag City.

Title | Gamers and Game Design: Incorporating Users in the Design Process |
Author(s) | Hellström Vogel, Tor |
Date | 2012 |
English abstract | |
This paper deals with the difficulties of applying user-centered design practices as an independent developer, based on the visualization of a game concept in the form of a prototype. The aim is to evaluate the usability of user-centered design practices, specifically in the field of games development. Throughout this paper, I will give an account of the methods used for testing, as well as a review of previous research done in this field of study. Finally, I will end with a discussion regarding the pros and cons of user-centered design, as well as some thoughts about its importance in similar projects. | |

Mindhole Blowers: 20 Facts About Gone with the Wind That Will Make You Give A Damn
By Kathy Benjamin | Think Pieces | May 16, 2012 | Comments ()
1. The Pulitzer Prize-winning novel that the movie was based on was almost never published. Margaret Mitchell was a very private person and had written the 418,053 word book for herself while stuck in bed after a car accident. Her husband later claimed credit, saying that it was only after he refused to get her any more books to read from the public library and he told her to write one of her own instead that Mitchell began working on Gone with the Wind. When a friend recommended she give it Harold Latham of Macmillan Publishing, she denied the manuscript even existed. Mitchell finally gave it to Latham, but then sent a telegram asking for it back. He refused. The book went on to sell almost 2 million copies in the first year. A month after publication the movie rights were sold to producer David O. Selznick for a then-record $50,000. He later gave Mitchell another $50,000 saying she had been underpaid. She never published another novel during her lifetime, due, many assume, to the huge and unwanted publicity surrounding her first.
2. Originally the main character's name was Pansy and titles considered for the novel itself included "Tomorrow is Another Day," "Bugles Sang True," "Not in Our Stars," "Ba! Ba! Black Sheep," and "Tote the Weary Load."
3. Clark Gable was the early favorite for the role of Rhett Butler, but he was not the only actor considered. In the end he was cast over Gary Cooper, Errol Flynn and Ronald Colman. Gary Cooper was quoted as saying, "Gone with the Wind is going to be the biggest flop in Hollywood history," and, "I'm just glad it'll be Clark Gable who's falling on his face and not Gary Cooper."
4. Selznick used a nationwide casting call to get people excited about the film before he was even sure it would be made. The search for the perfect Scarlett cost over $1.6 million in today's money with 1,400 women throwing their hats in to the ring. 400 actresses actually read for the role. Of those, 19 were given screen tests. Paulette Goddard and Vivien Leigh were the only two finalists shot in the more expensive Technicolor. Goddard might have gotten the role, but she was living with Charlie Chaplin out of wedlock and so was considered too controversial a choice in the end. Ironically, the married Leigh was openly having an affair with the married Laurence Olivier at the same time. This was apparently not controversial.
5. The public wasn't thrilled about an unknown English actress playing the quintessential Southern Belle. Leigh is not the only Brit in the film though; Leslie Howard who played Scarlett's unrequited love Ashley Wilkes was also English and if Englishman Ronald Colman had gotten the part of Rhett over Clark Gable three of the four main characters would have been decidedly un-American.
6. Then, as now, it was important to the viewing public that films based off books get the eye color of the heroine correct. Kristen Stewart recently said that the brown contacts she wore as Bella Swan "destroyed" her eyes. Leigh had no such quick fix to turn her naturally blue eyes green. Instead the character of Scarlett O'Hara wore lots of green clothing, and special light filters were used for her close-ups.
7. The production of the film was an epic mess. Three weeks into filming the original director was fired. The script was written, rewritten, altered, lengthen, and changed again. Five weeks into filming a completely new script was finished in seven 20 hour days, during which the producer Selznick did not allow anyone in the room to go on a lunch break, instead giving them bananas for sustenance. In the end at least dozen writers and three directors worked on the film. The third director was called in when the second had to take a break due to exhaustion.
8. One of the reasons for the frantic pace was Leigh herself. Olivier was not in Hollywood with her and every day she would ask for just one more scene to be shot, with the end goal being that she could speed up the very behind schedule production and get back to her lover sooner.
9. Clark Gable was famously not happy about the scene where Rhett Butler has to cry. When the director insisted that he do it Gable threatened to quit. Olivia de Havilland, whose character Melanie Hamilton Wilkes shares the scene with Butler, convinced him to stay.
10. Clark Gable was under contract to MGM in 1939 and they did not want to release him to play Butler. In the end an exorbitant contract was reached. Gable would be paid $7,000 ($115,574 today) per week and MGM would get half the profits from the film. Vivien Leigh worked for 125 days and received about $25,000. Clark Gable worked for 71 (non-consecutive) days and received over $120,000.
11. Despite their steamy on-screen chemistry, Leigh hated kissing Gable. He wore false teeth and she was quoted as saying, "Kissing Clark Gable in Gone with the Wind was not that exciting. His dentures smelled something awful."
12. The film includes two epic scenes. One, the burning of Atlanta, was the first thing shot. Selznick knew it would be the most expensive scene ($25,000 at the time) to film and that if something went wrong the movie might have to be scrapped completely. Using stunt doubles for Gable and the as yet uncast Scarlett, they burned the studio's back lot, including some old sets from other movies like King Kong. The blaze was so big that frantic locals called the fire department. The director shot 113 minutes of footage for what would ultimately be a relatively short scene. According to legend, while filming the fire Selznick's brother, who was an agent, came to the set and introduced him to Vivien Leigh, saying, "David, meet your Scarlett O'Hara."
13. The second epic shot is of the hundreds of dead and injured Confederate soldiers Scarlett must walk through to find Doctor Meade. Union rules required a certain number of extras be used, so 800 real people are mixed in with 800 dummies.
14. The four main characters are only in once scene together in the entire three and a half hour movie, when Scarlett learns her second husband has been killed.
15. Contrary to legend, the film was not fined for saying the word "damn." However, alternate versions of Rhett's famous parting line were considered in the various scripts including: "Frankly my dear... I just don't care," "... it makes my gorge rise," "... my indifference is boundless," "... I don't give a hoot," and "... nothing could interest me less." An AFI poll ranked "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn," as the most memorable line in movie history. This is actually the second time damn is used in the film, the first is in a parlor scene right before they learn war has been declared when someone says "Damn Yankees." The far more controversial word "miscarriage" was not allowed in the film, so instead Rhett says to Scarlett, "Maybe you'll have an accident," right before she falls down the stairs.
16. The first preview of the film was so secret even the audience didn't even know what they were seeing. Selznick just walked into a movie theatre, told the owner he was going to screen his film after the current show finished, and that the audience would have to be locked in to ensure they wouldn't call and let anyone know what they were watching. Despite viewing an unfinished version of the movie, the vast majority of the test audience loved it and asked that it not be cut any shorter than its 3 and half hour run time.
17. The film premiered in Atlanta after a three day celebration, but it was not without controversy. In the Jim Crow south, the black supporting actors could not sit with the white stars for the premiere. Clark Gable was so incensed at this slight to Hattie McDaniel in particular that he threatened to boycott the whole thing. McDaniel diffused the situation by sending her regrets to the director that she would be unable to make it due to prior commitments.
18. Gone with the Wind was the first film to receive more than five Academy Awards, receiving eight regular and two special Oscars. This record stood for 20 years until Ben-Hur won 11 in 1959. The film's one notable loss was Clark Gable to Robert Donat for his performance in Goodbye, Mr. Chips.
19. Hattie McDaniel was the first African-American Oscar nominee, and then the first winner for her role as Mammie. She played a version of that role many times in her career, but said, "I'd rather make $700 a week playing a maid than earn $7 a day being a maid." The slave roles in the film remained controversial, and for good reason. Malcolm X said of watching the film that, "When Butterfly McQueen went into her act, I felt like crawling under the rug."
20. The film has been re-released in theaters in the US eight time and made $400 million, which when adjusted for inflation is anywhere between $3 and $5 billion, making it the highest grossing film of all time. It is also believed to be the most watched film of all time, meaning more people bought tickets, regardless of their price, to this film than any other. While it is impossible to know the total number, an estimated 35 million tickets have been sold for theatrical screenings in the UK alone since 1939.

Senate Bill 308: Removes Truancy Exemption for Homeschool Children
Senator Jim Wilson
Even before the Oklahoma 2009 Legislative Session has officially started, two bills have come to our attention, and we need your help. Both of these bills, Senate Bill 308 and Senate Bill 472, threaten the foundation of home education freedom that parents have in Oklahoma. These bills are scheduled to be officially introduced on February 2.
Senate Bill 308 would allow local police or certain public school officials to take temporary custody of any child who was taught at home. Under S.B. 308, whenever a child is away from their home without an adult present, a police officer or school official could pick them up and temporarily detain them. Currently under Oklahoma law, children who are taught at home cannot be picked up and detained; they are exempt.
Oklahoma Christian Home Educators Consociation (OCHEC) has confirmed from Senator Jonathan Nichols, the chairman of the Rules Committee, that Senate Bills 308 and 472 will be killed in committee.
However, Senate Bills 308 and 472 did not pass out of committee.
1/20/2009 | (Senate) Introduced | |
2/2/2009 | (Senate) Referred to the Rules Committee |
HSLDA's Position:
HSLDA is opposed to S.B. 308.
Action Requested:
No further action needed at this time.
Some of you may remember that in the 2007 legislative session Senator Jim Wilson introduced a bill that was virtually identical to current Senate Bill 472. That bill, Senate Bill 375, was successfully defeated by the prayers and hard work of families all across Oklahoma.
Thank you for your part in fighting for freedom in Oklahoma! Feel free to pass this information on to others who are supportive of home education freedom. If you would like to be put on our email list to receive free vital e-lerts you may sign up here.

WILMINGTON — Wilmington City Council held a special meeting Monday night to discuss the ongoing issue of water rates.
While no decision was made at the meeting after the matter has been discussed in several Water Committee meetings, Councilman Mark McKay said he wants action to be taken no later than the the Sept. 4 council meeting, with several council members in agreement.
Wilmington Mayor Randy Riley opened the meeting by saying the the recommendations dictated by the Ohio Rural Community Assistance Program's water rate analysis should be followed immediately.
RCAP's analysis states that the city should impose a $10 per customer, per month service charge — also referred to as a tap fee — in order to meet debt and service coverage. That would generate almost $627,000.
Water Department Manager Jerry Rowlands said that the Water Department needs $600,000 simply to break even with debt coverage, not counting repairs, he added.
City Treasurer Paul Fear stood before council to present his views, saying that, as the main provider for a single-income household, a $10 tap fee would be too high of a cost, raising the amount he pays for water each month by 60 percent.
Fear said he had recently spent several thousand dollars in bathroom renovations in order to reduce water usage, but even with those renovations, the cost would still be too high for him to handle.
"We've known about it," Fear said, noting that the issue is not a new one, and preventative measures should have been taken in previous years to prevent the current problem from occurring.
Councilman Joe Spicer was of a similar mindset, saying he had followed the issue even before he became a councilman and nothing was done.
"I'm just really, really frustrated," he said.
Several different ideas were discussed, including taking money from the sewer fund's surplus — figured to be in the neighborhood of $3 million, according to Fear — as well as instating a $5 tap fee with a percentage monthly rate increase over time.
"We have to do something different," said Councilman Loren Stuckert, advising that both the sewer and water funds be looked at comprehensively, rather than seeing them as two separate entities.
"It's not like we're robbing Peter to pay Paul," Stuckert said. "They're both Paul."
"We do need to start getting money immediately," Councilwoman Marian Miller said, "but we need to not overcompensate."
While opinions varied, general consensus was that a $5 tap fee would not generate adequate funds, but that a $5 tap fee plus a monthly usage rate might.
Riley said the $5 fee and a possible rate increase would still not be enough, and that council should also consider that the RCAP recommendation of a $10 fee was just the beginning. He said its recommendation included raising the tap fee by $5 one year later, and another $5 the year after that. In 2017, the RCAP recommendation says to institute a 2.5-percent increase each year in 2017.
The water committee will meet at a later date to discuss the issue further.

del Amo Sanchez, P. et al. (2010) Test of Lepton Universality in Υ(1S) Decays at BABAR. Physical Review Letters, 104 (19). p. 191801. ISSN 0031-9007
Metadata only available from this repository.Abstract
The ratio Rτμ(Υ(1S))=ΓΥ(1S)→τ+τ-/ΓΥ(1S)→μ+μ- is measured using a sample of (121.8±1.2)×106Υ(3S) events recorded by the BABAR detector. This measurement is intended as a test of lepton universality and as a search for a possible light pseudoscalar Higgs boson. In the standard model (SM) this ratio is expected to be close to 1. Any significant deviations would violate lepton universality and could be introduced by the coupling to a light pseudoscalar Higgs boson. The analysis studies the decays Υ(3S)→Υ(1S)π+π-, Υ(1S)→l+l-, where l=μ, τ. The result, Rτμ(Υ(1S))=1.005±0.013(stat)±0.022(syst), shows no deviation from the expected SM value, while improving the precision with respect to previous measurements.

A "simple" cell method for concentrated suspnsions has been used to construct a model for the rheological behavior of blood. The model includes the physical properties of the suspending medium, red cell membrane and red cell fluid content. Predictions of the gross viscosity of red cell suspensions are found to agree very well with experiment in the cases of hardened red cells (or normal red cells at very low shear rate) and of normal red cells in the asymptotic limit of high shear rates. The behavior at intermediate shear rates requires a knowledge of the viscoplastic properties of the membrane and a number of membrane models are investigated. Of particular interest is plastic membrane which employs a membrane yield stress obtained from other experiments and whose results are qualitatively in agreement with the viscometric data at these intermediate shear rates.

Album Notes and Credits
Notes & Personnel Info |
The first disc features famous Kristofferson songs. The second disc is a compilation of Kristofferson hits made famous by other artists. | |
Kris Kristofferson is known for a half-dozen compositions that became pop or country hits in the early 1970s, most of them for other artists: "Me and Bobby McGee," "Help Me Make It Through the Night," "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down," "For the Good Times," "Loving Her Was Easier (Than Anything I'll Ever Do Again)," and "Why Me." But in the country market, he had many other hits as a songwriter over a period of more than 20 years. The two-CD compilation, an unusually ambitious undertaking for Sony Music's Special Products division (why didn't Legacy, the company's top-of-the-line reissue division do it?), devotes one disc to Kristofferson's own versions of some of his hits, with the second disc given over to the hit versions recorded by others, some of them licensed from other labels. There are a couple of his songs that he himself had hits with ("Josie," "Why Me"), and only his versions are included, and there are a couple of the many songs he had hits with but never recorded himself ("Vietnam Blues," "Please Don't Tell Me How the Story Ends"). There are also two cover versions each of "Me and Bobby McGee" (by Roger Miller and Janis Joplin) and "Help Me Make It Through the Night" (Sammi Smith and Willie Nelson). The result is revelatory. His rough voice an acquired taste and his arrangements given to loose country-rock, Kristofferson makes his songs sound like personal statements. Then you hear the slick country versions of the same songs, and they sound like good commercial Nashville product. Sammi Smith's "Help Me Make It Through the Night," sung from a woman's viewpoint, has a completely different feel from Kristofferson's. "If You Don't Like Hank Williams" sounds like it was written for Hank Williams, Jr.'s typically belligerent reading, though Kristofferson's own is, if anything, more raucous. The early "Vietnam Blues," the artist's first-ever cut back in 1966 by Dave Dudley, demonstrates the pro-war, anti-demonstrator attitude of the just-discharged former army captain, a vastly different political viewpoint from the one he would espouse two decades later. Singer/Songwriter is not perfect -- a thorough collection would have dredged up his 1967 Epic Records single "The Golden Idol" and included more of his lost masterpieces and big country hits, notably the great love song "I've Got to Have You" and the major country hits "Your Time's Comin'," "I Won't Mention It Again," and "One Day at a Time." But this is the first compilation to give listeners a sense of the scope of Kristofferson's achievement as a songwriter, beyond the handful of songs for which he is best known. (Though the annotations do not say so, the Kristofferson performance of "From the Bottle to the Bottom" appears to be previously unreleased.) ~ William Ruhlmann | |

Best Thrift Shop Houston 2007 - Value Village Super Store
Readers' Choice: Buffalo Exchange
While Value Village Super Store has plenty to offer anyone stocking an apartment on a budget, the best part of the thrift store is its stock of weird crap to buy for stupid reasons. You can get an old computer screen to throw off a building for a YouTube movie. You can pick up a VHS preview of CBS's 1991 season and laugh at all the shows that didn't make it to '92. You can purchase famed photographs of sailboats or kittens to tear up and doodle obscene pictures over for part of an art project. You can stock your cupboard with coffee cups featuring the names of rural Texas high school football teams or Las Vegas hotels/casinos that closed in 1985. And all of the above will cost you less than 20 bucks.

US 5114418 A Abstract The highly absorbent, leak-proof and breathable diaper of the invention is a 3-layer fabric incorporating a first layer of terry cloth, a second layer of polyurethane film, and a third layer of woven, or knit, fabric. Both the first and second layers, and the second and third layers, are laminated together with a urethane adhesive. The first layer then serves as a fluid absorbing portion for the diaper, while the second and third layers form a leakage-preventing portion for it.
Claims(4) 1. A breathable, durable and reusable diaper, comprising:
a first layer of terry cloth for providing a high absorbency characteristic to urine, fluids, moisture and body wastes; a second layer of polyurethane film for providing a high leakage preventing characteristic to urine, fluids, moisture and body wastes absorbed by said first layer; a first urethane adhesive joined between said first and second layers for laminating together said first and second layers; a third layer of one of woven or knit fabric, also for providing a high leakage preventing characteristic to urine, fluids, moisture and body wastes absorbed by said first layer; a second urethane adhesive joined between said second and third layers for laminating together said second and third layers; and with said first layer, when said diaper is worn, structured to be in contact with the body of the wearer. 2. The diaper of claim 1 wherein said first and second urethane adhesives incorporate a non-flammable solvent-based urethane adhesive.
3. The diaper of claim 1 wherein said terry cloth is composed of a polyester/cotton blend of weight substantially 2.0 oz/yd2.
4. The diaper of claim 1 wherein said first and second urethane adhesives include adhesive mixtures composed of the formulation by weight of:
polyurethane adhesive of viscosity 5,000 cps�2,000 cps --16.67%; and polyurethane adhesive of viscosity 27,000 cps�2,500 cps --83.33%. Description This invention relates to durable and reusable diapers and, more particularly, to a diaper construction which is highly absorbent, leak-proof and breathable. As is well known and understood, we presently live in an age where environmental issues are of prominent concern, both to individuals, industry, and Government. One need only pick-up a newspaper or magazine, or watch television, or listen to the radio, to hear of new fears and concerns, almost daily. One of the major areas of consideration is that of the "disposability" of products employed in the health industry. One specific matter undergoing evaluation is the "disposabiilty" of diapers--whether used for infants or incontinent adults--especially with decreasing numbers of landfills available. For such reason, increasing attention has been given to the idea of developing a durable and reusable diaper, even though the convenience of the "disposable" diaper has been well established over the past 10-20 years. More and more attention has been given to the concept of developing a highly absorbent, leak-proof and breathable diaper, but one which can be reused and which can withstand hundreds of washings and dryings. As will become clear hereinafter, the diaper of the invention is a 3-layer fabric, incorporating a first layer of terry cloth, a second layer of polyurethane film, and a third layer of woven or knit fabric. Both the first and second layers, and the second and third layers, will be seen to be laminated together, with a urethane adhesive. The first layer then serves as the fluid absorbing portion for the diaper, while the second and third layers form a leakage-preventing portion for it, and in manner to enable the diaper to be reusable, and durable, throughout its extended lifetime. These and other features of the invention will be more clearly understood from a consideration of the following description, taken in conjunction with the sole figure of the drawing indicative of the construction of the diaper which is, at the same time, reusable, highly absorbent, leak-proof, breathable and durable. In accordance with the present invention, a 3-layer fabric is described which offers the features of being reusable, highly absorbing, leak-proof, breathable, and durable, even after hundreds of commercial washing cycles and dryings. The first layer (shown by the reference numeral 10) is selected of a highly absorbent terry cloth made of a polyester/cotton blend. In a preferred embodiment, a terry cloth of weight 2.0 oz/yd2 was employed, although different weights and/or different fiber contents may be employed, all dependent upon the degree of absorbency needed, the "weight" requirements of the diaper, and upon its ultimate end use, as whether required for infants of differing weights or adults of different degrees of incontinence. It will be appreciated, by those skilled in the art, that it is this terry cloth layer 10 which will contact the body of the wearer. Also shown in the drawing is the leakage-preventing portion of the diaper, composed of the second and third layers 12, 14--it being understood that the first layer 10 serves as a fluid-absorbing portion as to urine, fluids, or other moistures and wastes. In accordance with the invention, the second layer 12 is a polyurethane film, preferably of 0.002 inch thickness, for serving as part of the leakage-preventing portion of the diaper fabric, along with a bottom layer 14 to be exposed to the ambient conditions. This third, or bottom, layer 14, according to the invention, may be a fabric in the nature of a 2.2 oz/yd2 brushed polyester knit, a brushed nylon knit, a brushed cotton knit, a 70 denier polyester knit or any other suitable denier polyester, a nylon or cotton knit, or a blend of any of the foregoing, or a further terry cloth, comparable to that comprising the first layer fabric 10. As with that layer 10, a variety of weights and/or fibers may be selected, depending upon the degree of absorbency needed, the "weights" of the infant wearers, and generally upon the end-use needs of the situation. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention, the first and second layers 10-12, and the second and third layers 12-14, are each laminated together with a urethane adhesive. For highly satisfactory results, a non-flammable solvent-based urethane adhesive was employed, and of a two-component polyurethane system. In fabrication, the adhesive was applied between the layers 10-12, and between the layers 12-14 using a cross-hatch, line-gravure, or dot-roller, so as to give a satisfactory level of bond strength and to insure that the resulting laminations remain intact after machine washings. To construct the lamination, the adhesive was cured using heat for reactivation, and the laminate was allowed to sit for 24 hours to complete the curing process. In a preferred fabrication, the layers 12-14 were first laminated together, and after the lamination was allowed to sit this 24 hours, it was then laminated to the layer 10. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the polyurethane film was selected of a high water vapor permeability, of the order of 360 g/m2 /24 hrs., and of a thickness of 0.051 mm. With a specific gravity of 1.1-12, a hydrostatic resistance of 62 psi, and a tensile strength of 4-10 psi, the film exhibited a very high resistance to abrasion and tearing. When composed of a polyether urethane, the layer 12 also exhibited an elongation of over 250%, and had a high chemical resistance to alkali and detergent solutions. In tests made of the diaper fabric, over hundreds of washings were made with a commercial machine incorporating various wash, rinse, bleach, and souring cycles, although not necessarily in that order, and then subjected to dryings at temperatures of 160� F., before starting a "wash" cycle anew. With additions of 16 oz alkali/ 8 oz detergent solutions, 1% sodium hypochlorite bleaches and souring to ph 5.5, no delamination, or "bubbling" was observable between any of the layers even after 200 washings and subsequent dryings. In such testings, only non-ionic detergents were employed, and no softeners were utilized as such solutions tend to reduce the absorbency of the fabrics employed. With the composition of the diaper fabric as set forth above, analysis has also shown that after this continued washing and drying, there did not appear any uneven shrinkage between the terry cloth fluid absorbing portion and the polyurethane-woven, or knit, fabric leakage-preventing portion. This adds to the comfortableness of the diaper for the user, and along with the fabrics employed, gave the diaper a highly desirable "breathable" characteristic. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, a completed construction was finalized with the lamination of the layers 10 and 12, and with the lamination of the layers 12 and 14, using an adhesive mixture formed of the composition: 1) polyurethane adhesive of viscosity 5,000 cps�2,000 cps --16.67% by weight; and 2) polyurethane adhesive of viscosity 27,000 cps�2,500 cps --83.33% by weight. Such polyurethane adhesives are generally available and manufactured by Soluol Chemical Co., Inc., of West Warwick, R.I., under the Tradenames Solubond 1101 and Solubond 1173, respectively. While there have been described what are considered to be preferred embodiments of the present invention, it will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art that modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the teachings herein. For at least such reason, therefore, resort should be had to the claims appended hereto for a true understanding of the scope of the invention. Patent Citations

It's too difficult for me or maybe I'm just too stupid. So please be patient and wait until I am in Madrid again. Then I will whisper into your ear how much I appreciate what you do. |
XXS Thanks for your comment and sorry that I have not answered before. I have had a lot of things to do and little time to do them. Unfortunately the communication in English takes me some time, something terrible for someone as wordy as me. I promise to solve it. |

Do you have an Advent Wreath?
How about sharing a photo?
The combox is open.
Do you have an Advent Wreath?
How about sharing a photo?
The combox is open.
We have a hanging wreath this year:
We would…but two small children and two cats tend to put a damper on that…
The cats would knock over the candles and set themselves on fire. However, a friend says that I can get one with LED candles. Hmmmm.
Iowander, that is awesome. We don't have a wreath either because small children/apartment/broke but we could probably pull that off.
The trailing rosemary in our front bed really took off this year, so I cut off a big pile of long pieces and braided them into the garland that's wound twice around the stand. There's tons more, so I can probably make a fresh one for Christmas.
Please excuse the mess in the background, we've all been pretty sick the past two weeks.
I've got the LED kind, because my apartment has weird drafts. It's tiny, but it looks nice and the batteries for the lights are long-lasting.
The kids and I melted purple and pink crayons and painted unscented white pillar candles last night so that they would be ready for today.
Rearranging for winter life (sort of cottage) and the calendar is ahead of me, due to consequences of weather and other events; but, it will be on the table before time for the second candle lighting. Couldn't find much loved hemlock, but today fraser fir pieces to go with storm-destroyed arbor vitae greens.
I was thinking that the wreath in the column to the right would be good on a mug. What happens to make the wreath become a halo on this side?
Technology of transfering pictures from san disk to file to combox seems daunting and time consuming. Fun with "wireless" wires, not for me yet. Still have to dismantle good a PC from '95.
Rolled back into town this evening and had to pick up the dogs from the boarding kennel . . . . but all the Advent stuff, including the wreath, is coming out tomorrow without fail. We'll just do the first candle a trifle late . . . that has happened before.
No kids at home right now, but three very active dogs and a mischievous Siamese cat. We don't leave the wreath lighted and unattended, and things work out o.k.
Got the wreath. Now I just have to find those purple and rose candles…got a box of cheap taper ones a few years ago…I'm sure they're somewhere.
I can never find pink candles and repeatedly fail to order in advance and repeatedly fail to order more than one. So it's set up but our Rose candle is white.
Also super excited about place mats I got from Wee Believers. They have a new prayer each Sunday and the kids get to color in the flame on the candles on the mat, one Sunday at a time. Very cool and hopefully keeps me on track
No pictures at the moment, as the kitchen table looks like a bomb went off on it, but I deployed the Advent wreath before dinner tonight. I used the prayers from the Magnificat to ask the Lord to bless it.
After four Advents, the candles are burnt down to stubs. I think I my have to head down to the local Catholic bookstore to get new ones before Christmas rolls around this year.
Well, I found two purple candles and a kind of pinkish one. If only Advent were a week a shorter.
Pillar candles on stands inside the wreath. We could not find 4 of the same holders so had to go with two different heights and alternate them.
We have to roll the tablecloth up on the baby's side so he doesn't yank it. The 3 year old needs to be reminded not to touch the wreath while the candle is lit. Luckily the 7 and 5 year old are used to it by now. :)
I found the candles that I purchased in advance for LAST year's wreath. You know, you buy them early and then stash them somewhere special so they won't be lost. Then forget where you stashed them. I found them in a drawer in the laundry room. So the wreath is set up, it's just a basic brass frame. I can't find the greenery though, it's probably packed with the Christmas decor. Will have to grab some today. But the Jesse Tree is up and awaiting its first ornament on Thursday.
Yes my wonderful wife made one – we also had it blessed yesterday. One cat and one little kid so far without accidents… http://jpbfwd.fotodenicek.cz/?p=20111126_091926_9109
I live alone, and I'm pretty terrified of anything having to do with candles and fire, so no wreath.
Never had one, and never will.
Since the birth of my daughter last year, I have approached Advent woefully unprepared. Last year, I was shocked (shocked!) when I couldn't find colored candles anywhere in my little town. I had waited too close to advent to order them in time and then our little monkey was born and everything else went by the wayside. This year I bought advent candles from an out of town Catholic bookstore in October. But, we are in the midst of a move and I can't find my candle holders anywhere.
So we tried to substitute a fancy schmany silver candelabra, and I even wound ivy and purple ribbon around it, but the candles were too small for the holes and wouldn't stand up. We found one holder last night and so managed to have a semblance of a devotional. It was far from my aspirations, however. I'll come up with something else before next Sunday, and pictures would need to wait until then.
Those that have small children and animals at home might take the advice of Leila Lawler, a most fabulous Catholic wife, mother, homeschooler, and blogger. She gives directions on how to rig up a hanging wreath here: http://ourmothersdaughters.blogspot.com/2009/11/advent-prayers-and-little-more-on-how-i.html#more
Fr. Z's blog sometimes tends to be geared more towards other priests than towards the ecclesia domestica, so if you ever want/ need practical advice on how to create a Catholic culture in your very own home, Leila's delightful blog is the answer. I can't say enough positive things about her. Really, Father, you ought to endorse her. She's very orthodox, and manages to boil down the theology into practical, daily life terms for the lay people.
I usually do, but I will enjoy your two on your homepage. You keep the candles going all the time. Thank you! My children made theirs and sent pictures. One was a three year old at a Catholic pre-k. They made play dough and used birthday candles. They sent all the traditional prayers home for the Advent. Let us all pray for each other and our families. Mother Mary please pray for our families, draw us to your Son-JESUS!
Here's a picture of ours from my blog:
You can usually get the candles at a Christian bookstore. Amazon has them in all sizes. We light it at grace before dinner, and blow out the candles when we finish eating, thus not unmonitored fire hazard. The pink and purple glass ornaments came from Walmart. Maybe a bit too flashy for advent, but the kids are happy to see this since we don't put up decorations until Gaudete Sunday.
As a contributor to a collaborative Catholic blog, Catholic Sistas, I have posted my own Advent meditations and an Advent Wreath project for the readers. The wreath in the illustration is the wreath we are using. http://www.catholicsistas.com/2011/11/17/adventuresome-family-fun/
we are set with our simple advent wreath. dad blessed the wreath on sunday.
our little ones have their own fabric wreaths.
We just have a line of candles! (Pretty pathetic and I'm so thoroughly ashamed I can't bring myself to photograph it.)
